Here is a summary of observations from both Gemini telescopes in October 2025, divided by instrument and color-coded by location. Gemini's Zorro took the most observations again this month, totaling over 3,500!

This week’s image is of the supernova SN2011fe (the bright blue object in the upper right of the image)! This star’s explosive death was observed in the galaxy M101, about 20 million light-years away from us. Check out the 🧵 for more papers involving supernovae!

This week’s image is of the ultra-faint dwarf galaxy Pegasus V, initially found in archival Dark Energy Camera data. This color image comprises images taken with @GeminiObs GMOS-N with two optical filters (475 nm and 630 nm). Check out the 🧵 for more dwarf galaxies!
